About Walden
Walden is a detached house in Shrewsbury (SY2 5DP). It has a recorded floor area of 182 m² (around 1959 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 63), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
One historical planning record sits against the property in 2019. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
